Do not remove and insert a pluggable transceiver more often than
necessary. Frequent installation and removal of a pluggable
transceiver can shorten its lifespan.
After you remove a pluggable transceiver from the interface cage, wait for
at least one second before you reinsert it or insert another one.
Be sure to clean the fiber-optic connectors before you reconnect them
into the optical ports of the replacement transceiver module.
Always keep dust plugs on any open ports on the pluggable
transceivers. Strong airflow and pressure within the shelf could
cause open ports to become contaminated with dust.
If you disconnect optical cables to clean fiber-optic connectors and
receptacles, reattach the cables as soon as possible after cleaning to
help prevent dust contamination.
